Timeless, versatile, and effortlessly cool. Black jeans work day to night, casual to polished. And – as opposed to blue jeans – black jeans can be worn for many occasions when you need to be a bit more formally dressed. Like going for a job interview, or meeting your future mother-in -law!
Dress them up with a blazer or down with a tee, pair with boots, sneakers, or heels – they always fit the moment. Clean or faded, straight or relaxed, black denim is the foundation piece that never lets you down.
Especially now, in wintertime, black jeans are a must-have in our denim closet.
Below you can find a breakdown of styles and fits trending right now (and not going anywhere either in the next seasons!).
Fits: Straight, relaxed, wide, and barrel legs.
Rises: Mid to high rise continue strong, but the low-rise is definitely trending as well.
Washes: Ranging from a deep jet black to faded charcoal – depending on the occasion you want to wear your jeans for.
Fabric: Rigid, non-stretch denim, but if you’re into vintage, you’d prefer a softer mid-weight denim with a bit of stretch.
